Phys. Rev. 176, 2112–2119 (1968)Multiperipheral Bootstrap ModelReceived 3 July 1968; published in the issue dated December 1968 A crude bootstrap model is constructed, based on forward-direction unitarity and the multi-Regge hypothesis. The Pomeranchuk trajectory is generated by iteration of lower-meson trajectories, whose average residue is correlated with average trajectory height. Iteration of the Pomeranchuk turns out to be a small but nonvanishing perturbation that requires the effective average height of the Pomeranchuk trajectory to be slightly less than 1. The model yields a two-parameter formula for multiple-production cross sections that agrees satisfactorily with nucleon-nucleon data up to 30 GeV. © 1968 The American Physical Society URL:
